Most Portuguese village in Portugal

Stone Steps

You can see forever from this old "rock" village. Each bit of open land on top of the hill is used for farming.

The village is built into the side of the rocks with big boulders used for the sides of some of the older buildings.

This village was voted "Most Portuguese village in Portugal".
